7s & 8s all round but 9s for Kante and the unsung heroes Morgan & Fuchs, only down point was how poor Schlupp was, he seems to lose interest like he did in the Arsenal game. Vardys record is phenomenal and Kante is just brilliant...

Up the City....

Posted

Kasper - 6 - not much to do

Simpson - 8 -starting to impress me, playing consistently well and doesn't shirk a challenge

Wes - 8 - was very good and pretty much bossed deeney/ighalo

Huth - 8 - see Wes

Fuchs - 8 - solid, composed and reliable

Kante - 8.5 - excellent, compliments DD so well

Drinky - 9 - dictated the tempo and his control of game management was immense, didn't think he could consistently deliver in the prem, my mistake!!

Mahrez - 7.5 - quiet first half but better second half, has so much ability but for us he is a winger and that's where we get the best out if him

Albrighton - 8 - good game and is so dangerous in the last third, his defensive work goes unnoticed but is good

Schlupp - 6 - a few good passes especially the one that set Fuchs free to cross that nearly reached vardy, but it was a typical Jeff performance

Vardy - 8.5 - typical work rate that sets the trend for the rest of them, worried the back four Everytime he had the ball and deserved his goal

Subs

Okazaki - 7 - always works hard and changed our attacking ethos today, he is a pest who I hope starts scoring as we seem to unsettle teams more when he's on the pitch

Dyer - 6 - not enough time to judge

King - 6 - same as dyer

Ref - 8 - thought he did very well

Don R - 8 - changed tactics and at the right time, so pleased he's our boss

Mom - drinky - class

25 points already - wow

Kasper 7 great double save first half

Simpson 6 We need a right back

Huth 8 Roughed up Ighalo nicely. Back to last seasons form

Morgan 8 A Captains game

Fuchs 8 We need to use his long throws more

Schlupp 6 Not at his best

Kante 7 I love this guy. Worst goal that you will see this season, but they all count. Stupid to give away penalty.

Danny 8 Great partner for Kante

Albrighton 8 some great crosses

Mahrez 7 better on the wing

Vardy 7 not his best game but still good.

Shinji 6 needs a goal but adds a lot to the team

Dyer 6

King 7 but a very brief appearance

Tinkerman knows how to change a game. Those half time talks are astonishingly good

Watford 6 not a bad side, but not good enough.

Posted

Kasper 7 (One excellent save, one vital diversion of a cross and one bread and butter save that Gomez showed you could make a mistake with. That's not a lot but it needed doing).  

Simpson  8 (Sound once again. We've seeming much more solid since he's become established.) 

Morgan  9 (One absolutely vital defensive flick on to deflect a cross from Deeney's path when he looked certain to score. Otherwise rock solid.) 
 

Huth  8 (Marked tightly enough to let his opponents know they'd have no peace all game).  

Fuchs 8.5 (Dealt with a difficult opponent by staying tight and making all the right decisions. So calm and considered. Just did what was needed.) 

Kante 8 (Like a footballing dynamo, the bloke is all action and was generally outstanding. Fluky goal but he worked hard to create the chance and if you don't shoot you can't score. Shame about the penalty. As other's have mentioned he didn't appear the get the call he should have got but for all that he shouldn't have hesitated in that position but just have got rid)  

Drinkwater 10 (Almost regal in the way he conducted Leicester's midfield today. His variety of passes, the way he made time and space in tight situations, the winning of headers, defensive availability and attacking support ..... the guy was excellent even against highly physical opposition.)

Mahrez 7 (Asked far more questions in the second half and might have had a goal from one mazey dribble).   

Albrighton  7.5 (Well involved defensively and in attack although, yet again, I didn't think his crosses were that potent in the main, especially the slow, floated ones. But then I didn't notice the space being available for the runners without Ulloa).

Schlupp 6  (Failed to take on the full-back when he had chance and skied a reasonable goal chance. Looked better when he moved inside but needs to work tirelessly on his crossing and shooting. Not his best game. Looked a little uncertain at times).    

Vardy  8 (Had only a limited number of opportunities but deserved his eight for forcing the keeper to concede a penalty and then smacking it home with attitude. Clearly unsettled the Watford defence from the time he blocked a simple pass near the touchline towards the end of the first half and could well have scored from another typical break. Epitomised his own and the team's spirit by returning after what looked at first like a game-ending injury for him).

Subs 

Okazaki 7 (Industrious as ever and contributed well in general, but opted out of shooting when he might easily have scored and still didn't pose much threat as an attacker. 

King 7 (Not on long but did exactly what was required. Broke up one late attack and retained possession in a constructive way thus helping prevent Watford from generating any kind of late momentum).    

 

Dyer (No significant impact)

This but Drinkwater 9 

Posted

Honestly thought Drinkwater was little better than average today. Gave the ball away quite a lot, as he did last week and wasted our best chance of the first half by holding onto the ball way too long when both Mahrez and Vardy had made good runs.

Posted

Schmeichel- 7 (Excellent save in the first half, especially the reaction time after the shot hit the post)

 

Simpson- 7

Morgan- 8 (Great display from the ever-improving skipper. Some crucial interventions and his ability on the ball is underrated. Sol Bamba who can actually defend as well)

Huth- 7 (Like last season)

Fuchs- 7 (Proper left back on show here)

 

Albrighton- 6

Drinkwater- 7

Kante- 7 (Poor decision making for the penalty, fortunate goal but first half he was everywhere. Livewire and hardly ever reckless)

Schlupp- 6

 

Mahrez- 6

Vardy- 7 (Not too many chances but clever run, drew the keeper, smashed in the penalty. What a difference a year makes)

 

Subs- 

Okazaki- 6

Dyer- 6

King- 6 (On for four minutes and did his job very well in helping us see out the game).

Posted

He had this mistake to not leave too early to ManU ;) But I think he isn't in Deschamps' plans for Euro whereas he deserves more than a Moussa Sissoko... 

Posted

Drinkwater, Fuchs and Kante were on a different planet and the difference between the two sides.

Morgan was a beast at the back and Albrighton looked quality.

On a side note I liked the loon of their right back, thought he was outstanding for them and just the player we need.

Posted

Kasper - 7 - Did his job

 

Simpson - 7 - Very solid

Morgan - 8 - Deeney and Ighalo were a handful but he came out on top
Huth - 7 - Struggled with Ighalo's movement first half but overcame him

Fuchs - 8 - Excellent

 

Albrighton - 7 - Lots of hard work, good feet, decent quality

Drinkwater - 8 - Great player this season, superb on the ball

Kante - 6 - Love him but he was a tad sloppy at times

Schlupp - 6 - Suddenly discovered aerial ability but didn't have a great impact going forward

 

Mahrez - 6 - Not hugely involved but did well when he was

Vardy - 7 - Heroic running off of that groin injury, and classic Vardy to win the penalty

 

Okazaki - 6 - Did well at relieving some pressure 

Posted

Morgan 8 - not his biggest fan last season, this year and especially yesterday unbelievable. He seemed so composed, every clearance was more of a pass, awareness was brilliant. Real captains performance, long may it continue.

Drinkwater - 7 really surprised at the9s n 10s, slowed the game down too much, perfect example was when he had about 30yards to run into but never bothered looking forward, 10 seconds later he pings a superb ball over to Mahrez on the wing. back yourself Danny!

Posted

Kasper 6 Not a lot to do

Simpson 6 Like how he gets stuck in but so limited in attack

Morgan 9 MOTM Great performance and for the second week running our best defender

Huth 8 Played well

Fuchs 8 Very good again

Albrighton 8 Involved in everything and unlucky not to get on the scoresheet

Drinkwater 8 Good again. Tired towards the end

Kante 6 Not one of his better games but always involved

Mahrez 6 Fairly quiet from him but much better once he switched out wide

Schlupp 5 Brainless at times. Poor half

Vardy 8 Won a penalty and caused havoc despite being injured. He's a robot

Subs

Okasaki 7 Got really involved and Vardy was better with a strike partner. His dives/making a meal of challenges is embarrassing though

Others n/a

Ranieri 10. He's either dead lucky or a genius because absolutely everything he tries, he pulls it off.

Thought Watford were good- would love Ighalo here to play with Vardy. He was excellent

Posted

Drinkwater a 6 or a 7. Really?

Gave him a 7

Thought he was excellent in the first half, second half he was decent but not as good as the first half.

Fair enough mate. Always been a huge fan of his so maybe I'm more generous to him lol
Posted

Vardy and Kante pick of the bunch for me - 9.

Drinkwater excellent again as was Fuchs - 8.

 

8 for Okazaki too who changed the game when he came on.

Posted

Ranieri - 9 Set the team up well, and has the balls to change things at half time rather than waiting until late in the game. For me, this is one of his strengths.

 

Kasper - 8 Thought he looked solid and dealt with everything well, especially his reaction save after they hit the post. Great passion & spirit too.

Simpson - 8 Become so much more consistent with this run in the side and the other three looks much happier having him at right back.
Morgan - 8 Very solid, best game of the season. Just wonder if he could he have done slightly more to get distance with the head out to Kante which led to the penalty?
Huth - 8 Looked back to his best.
Fuchs - 8 Pleased to have him back in the side. Superb and proper left back.

Albrighton - 9 My MOTM. Did so much work, unlucky not to score and consistently looked dangerous.
Drinkwater - 8 Bossed the midfield. Looks in great form. Did tire towards the end.
Kante - 7 Great to see him score, loved his reaction. Caught out for penalty. Worked his socks off.
Mahrez - 7 Good second half, unlucky not to score just after their penalty.
Schlupp - 5 Deserved to be subbed at half time.

Vardy - 8 Defenders are now so wary of him. Fantastic running after injury, winning the penalty and chasing defenders in the last few minutes to ensure their defenders couldn't get it up field quickly.

Subs:
Okasaki - 6 Usual high work rate.

Dyer - 6 Floated around, tried hard.
King - 6 Not easy to give him a rating for the time he was on!

Watford - 6 Will easily survive. Organised and solid. Didn't offer much after they scored, which surprised me, although we defended very well to see the game out.

Officials: - 7 Got both penalties right, and didn't notice many mistakes from them and tried hard to make the game flow.

How do people judge? Do you start at 0 and mark up or start at 10 and mark down based on the performance?

6 means he did his job, no less, no more. Then I go below and above accordingly !

Posted

Surprised by high ratings for our players. I'm sure if we'd drawn the scores all round would have been lower. I scored 6/7 for most. It was pretty unspectacular but efficient compared to other matches. Watford looked pretty good kept the ball better than us and I was impressed by Capoue and

Ighalo.
